A513/A513M − 12 8. Permissible Variations in Dimensions for Round Tubing 8.1 Diameter and Wall Thickness (Hot-Rolled Steel)— Variations from specified outside diameter for “as-welded” and “as-welded and annealed” tubing made from hot-rolled steel shall not exceed the amounts prescribed in Table 4. Permissible variations in outside diameter for tubing that has been sinkdrawn for closer tolerance on outside diameter are shown in Table 5. Permissible variations in wall thickness for tubing that has been sink-drawn for closer tolerances on outside diameters are 610 % of the nominal wall or 60.010 in. (0.25 mm), whichever is greater. Permissible variations in wall thickness for tubing made from hot-rolled steel are shown in Tables 6 and 7. Permissible variation in outside and inside diameter for tubing made from hot-rolled steel that has been Drawn Over a Mandrel (DOM) for closer tolerances are shown in Table 5 with wall tolerances shown in Tables 8 and 9. 8.2 Diameter and Wall Thickness (Cold-Rolled Steel)— Variations in outside diameter and inside diameter of “aswelded” and “as-welded and annealed” tubing made from cold-rolled steel are shown in Table 10. Outside diameter tolerances for cold-rolled steel tubing, sink drawn and DOM, are shown in Table 5. Wall thickness tolerances for“ aswelded” tubing made from cold-rolled steel are shown in Tables 11 and 12. Permissible variations in wall thickness for round tubing, DOM for closer tolerances, are shown in Tables 8 and 9. Permissible variations in wall thickness for tubing that has been sink-drawn for closer tolerances on outside diameter are 610 % of the nominal wall or 60.010 in. (0.25 mm), whichever is greater. 8.3 Length (Hot- and Cold-Rolled Steel)—Mechanical tubing is commonly furnished in mill lengths 5 ft (1.5 m) and over. Definite cut lengths are furnished when specified by the purchaser. Tolerances for definite cut lengths round tubing shall be as given in Tables 13 and 14. 8.4 Squareness of Cut (Hot- and Cold-Rolled Steel)—When specified, tolerance for squareness of cut of round tubing shall be as given in Table 15. Measurements are made with use of an “L” square and feeler gauge. The long leg (blade) of the square to be equal to tube diameter plus a minimum of 1 in. (25.4 mm). Outside diameter burr to be removed for measurement. 8.5 Straightness— The straightness tolerance for round tubing is 0.030 in./3 ft [0.75 mm/1m] lengths to 8.000 in. [200 mm] outside diameter. For 8.000 in. [200 mm] outside diameter and above, straightness tolerance is 0.060 in./3 ft [1.5 mm/1 m] lengths. For lengths under 1 ft [305 mm] the straightness tolerance shall be agreed upon between the purchaser and producer. The test method for straightness measurement is at the manufacturer’s option, unless a specific test method is specified in the purchase order. 8.6 Ovality (Hot- and Cold-Rolled Steel)—The ovality shall be within the tolerances except when the wall thickness is less than 3 % of the outside diameter. 8.6.1 In such cases for Types 1 and 2 (A.W.H.R. and A.W.C.R.) the ovality may be 50 % greater than the outside tolerances but the mean outside diameter shall be within the specified tolerance.

8.6.2 For Types 3, 4, 5, and 6 (S.D.H.R., S.D.C.R., DOM, and S.S.I.D.) the additional ovality shall be as follows but the mean outside diameter shall be within the specified tolerance: Outside Diameter, in. [mm] Up to 2 [50], incl Over 2 to 3 [50 to 75], incl Over 3 to 4 [75 to 100], incl Over 4 to 5 [100 to 125], incl Over 5 to 6 [125 to 150], incl Over 6 to 7 [150 to 180], incl Over 7 to 8 [180 to 205], incl Over 8 to 9 [205 to 230], incl Over 9 to 10 [230 to 255], incl Over 10 to 11 [255 to 280], incl Over 11 to 12 [280 to 305], incl Over 12 to 12.500 [305 to 320], incl

9. Permissible Variations in Dimensions of Square and Rectangular Tubing 9.1 Diameter and Wall Thickness—Permissible variations in outside dimensions for square and rectangular tubing shall be as given in Table 16. The wall thickness tolerance is 610 % of the nominal wall thickness. 9.2 Corner Radii— Unless otherwise specified, the corners of square and rectangular tubing shall be slightly rounded inside and outside, consistent with wall thickness. The outside corners may be slightly flattened. The radii of corners shall be as given in Table 17. 9.3 Squareness—Permissible variations for squareness shall be determined by the following equation: 6b 5 c x 0.006 in. ~ 0.15 mm !

where: b = tolerance for out-of-square, and c = largest external dimension across flats. The squareness of sides is commonly determined by one of the following methods. 9.3.1 A square with two adjustable contact points on each arm, is placed on two sides. A fixed feeler gauge is then used to measure the maximum distance between the free contact point and the surface of the tubing. 9.3.2 A square equipped with a direct reading vernier, may be used to determine the angular deviation which, in turn, may be related to distance in in. (mm). 9.4 Length—Variations from the specified length shall not exceed the amount prescribed in Table 18. 9.5 Twist—Twist tolerances are shown in Table 19. The twist in square and rectangular tubing may be measured by holding one end of the tubing on a surface plate and noting the height of either corner of the opposite end of same side above the surface plate. Twist may also be measured by the use of a beveled protractor equipped with a level, and noting the angular deviation on opposite ends, or at any point throughout the length. 9.6 Straightness— The straightness tolerance is 1⁄16 in./3 ft (1.7 mm/1 m). The test method for straightness measurement is at the manufacturer’s option, unless a specific test method is specified in the purchase order.

(2.4 mm), whichever is less. B Flash Controlled to 0.010 in. (0.25 mm) maximum tubing consists of tubing which is commonly produced only to outside diameter tolerances and wall thickness tolerances, in which the height of the remaining welding flash is controlled not to exceed 0.010 in. C Flash Controlled to 0.005 in. (0.13 mm) maximum tubing is produced to outside diameters and wall thickness tolerance, inside diameter and wall thickness tolerances, or outside diameters and inside diameter tolerances, in which the height of the remaining flash is controlled not to exceed 0.005 in. Any remaining flash is considered to be part of the applicable inside diameter tolerances.

Tubing, flash in or flash controlled which is further processed without mandrel to obtain tolerances closer than those shown in Tables 4 and 10. The ovality shall be within the above tolerances except when the wall thickness is less than 3 % of the outside diameter, in such cases see 8.6.2. Tubing produced to outside diameter and wall thickness, or inside diameter and wall thickness, or outside diameter and inside diameter, by DOM to obtain tolerances closer than those shown in Tables 4 and 10 and no dimensional indication of inside diameter flash.

10. Tubing Sections Other Than Square and Rectangular 10.1 In addition to square and rectangular tubing, many producers supply a variety of special sections, such as oval, streamlined, hexagonal, octagonal, round inside and hexagonal or octagonal outside, ribbed inside or out, triangular, rounded rectangular and D shapes. Manufacturing practices limit the size range and section available from the various producers. These special sections may be made through turkshead rolls or through a die with or without use of a mandrel. Since the sections are special, dies and other tools are not held available.

Therefore, when inquiring for shapes other than square and rectangular, it is essential to give full details as to dimensions and finish. 11. Workmanship, Finish, and Appearance 11.1 The tubing shall be free of injurious defects and shall have a workmanlike finish. 11.2 When burrs must be removed from one or both ends, it shall be specified in the purchase order.

Flash-In-Tubing is produced to outside diameter tolerances and wall thickness tolerances only, and the height of the inside welding flash does not exceed the wall thickness or 3⁄32 in. (2.38 mm), whichever is less. Flash Controlled to 0.010 in. (0.26 mm) maximum tubing consists of tubing over 5⁄8 in. [15 mm] outside diameter which is commonly produced to outside diameter tolerances and wall thickness tolerances only, in which the height of the remaining inside welding flash is controlled not to exceed 0.010 in. C Flash Controlled to 0.005 in. (0.13 mm) maximum tubing is produced to outside diameter tolerances and wall thickness tolerances, inside diameter tolerances and wall thickness tolerances, or outside diameter tolerances and inside diameter tolerances, in which the height of the remaining inside welding flash is controlled not to exceed 0.005 in. Any remaining flash is considered to be part of the applicable inside diameter tolerances. D Birmingham Wire Gauge. E The ovality shall be within the above tolerances except when the wall thickness is less than 3 % of the outside diameter, in such cases see 8.6.1. F Where the ellipsis (...) appears in this table, the tolerance is not addressed. B

No cracks or breaks in the base metal shall occur until the distance between the plates is less than one third of the original outside diameter of the tubing, but in no case less than five times the thickness of the tubing wall. Evidence of lamination or burnt material shall not develop during the flattening process, and the weld shall not show injurious defects. S6.2.1 When low D-to-t ratio tubing is tested, because the strain imposed due to geometry is unreasonably high on the inside surface at the six and twelve o’clock locations, cracks at these locations shall not be cause for rejection if the D-to-t ratio is less than 10. S6.3 Flaring Test—A section of tube approximately 4 in. [100 mm] in length shall stand being flared with a tool having a 60° included angle until the tube at the mouth of the flare has been expanded 15 % of the inside diameter, without cracking or showing flaws. S6.4 In order to properly evaluate weld quality, the producer at his option may normalize the test specimen prior to testing. S6.5 Number of tests and retests: S6.5.1 Two flattening and two flaring tests shall be made from each lot as specified. Each tested specimen shall conform to the respective requirement (See Note S1). S6.5.2 If the results of the testing do not conform to the requirements, retests shall be made on four additional specimens, each of which shall conform to the respective requirement.

S7. Hydrostatic Test Round Tubing S7.1 All tubing will be given a hydrostatic test calculated as follows: P5

P S t D

2St D

where: = minimum hydrostatic test pressure, psi or MPa, = allowable fiber stress of 14 000 psi or 96.5 MPa, = specified wall thickness, in. or mm, and = specified outside diameter, in. or mm.

S7.2 The minimum hydrostatic test pressue shall be maintained for not less than 5 s. S8. Nondestructive Electric Test S8.1 Each tube shall be tested with a nondestructive electric test in accordance with Practice E213, Practice E273, Practice E309, or Practice E570. It is the intent of this test to reject tubes containing injurious defects. S8.2 For eddy-current testing, the calibration tube shall contain, at the option of the producer, any one of the following discontinuities to establish a minimum sensitivity level for rejection. For welded tubing, they shall be placed in the weld if visible. S8.2.1 Drilled Hole—A hole not larger than 0.031 in. (0.78 mm) in diameter shall be drilled radially and completely through the tube wall, care being taken to avoid distortion of the tube while drilling. S8.2.2 Transverse Tangential Notch—Using a round tool or file with a 1⁄4-in. (6.4-mm) diameter, a notch shall be filed or milled tangential to the surface and transverse to the longitudinal axis of the tube. Said notch shall have a depth not exceeding 121⁄2 % of the specified wall thickness of the tube or 0.004 in. (0.101 mm), whichever is greater. S8.2.3 Longitudinal Notch—A notch 0.031 in. (0.78 mm) or less in width shall be machined in a radial plane parallel to the tube axis on the outside surface of the tube, to have a depth not exceeding 121⁄2 % of the specified wall thickness of the tube or 0.004 in. (0.101 mm), whichever is greater. The length of the notch shall be compatible with the testing method. S8.3 For ultrasonic testing, the longitudinal calibration reference notches shall be at the option of the producer, any one of the three common notch shapes shown in Practice E213 or Practice E273. The depth of notch shall not exceed 121⁄2 % of the specified wall thickness of the tube or 0.004 in. (0.101

A513/A513M − 12 APPENDIX (Nonmandatory Information) X1. MEASURING MICROINCH FINISH

X1.1 The procedure for making microinch readings on interior surfaces of cold worked tubing (not polished or ground) 1⁄2-in. (12.7-mm) inside diameter and larger is as follows: X1.1.1 Measurements on tubing with longitudinal or no predominant lay should be circumferential on the inside surface of the straight tube, prior to any fabrication, on a plane approximately perpendicular to the tube axis. Measurements on tubing with circumferential lay should be longitudinal. X1.1.2 Measurements should be made not less than 1 in. (25.4 mm) from the end. X1.1.3 Measurements should be made at four positions approximately 90° apart or over a complete circumference if the trace should otherwise overlap. X1.1.4 The length of trace should be in accordance with the latest revision of Section 4.5 of ANSI B 46.1 (not less than 0.600 in. (15.24 mm) long). X1.1.5 A minimum of three such measurements should be made spaced not less than 1⁄4 in. (6.4 mm) apart along the longitudinal axis.

X1.1.6 The numerical rating shall be the arithmetical average microinch of all readings taken. Each reading to be averaged should be the mean position of the indicator during the trace; any momentary meter excursions occupying less than 10 % of the total trace should be ignored. X1.1.7 A deviation in numerical rating in various parts of a tube may be expected. Experience to date indicates that a variation of about 635 % is normal. X1.2 Instruments should meet the specifications given in the latest revision of ANSI B 46.1. X1.3 Mechanical tracing is preferred. If hand tracing is used, the speed of trace should not vary by more than 620 % from the required to give the appropriate cutoff. The 0.030-in. (0.76 mm) roughness width cutoff should be used. X1.4 Microinch (0.0000254 mm) determinations only refer to roughness of areas that do not contain a defect, injurious or otherwise. Such defects as seams, slivers, pits, laps, etc., are subject to ordinary visual inspection in accordance with applicable specifications or trade customs, and have no relationship to roughness.

SUMMARY OF CHANGES Committee A01 has identified the location of selected changes to this specification since the last issue, A513 – 08a, that may impact the use of this specification. (Approved May 1, 2012) (1) Added drawing steels to Table 2.

(2) Added metric conversion to the standard and changed to dual designation.
